This study found that the wavy coat trait in Nakano cataract mice is polygenic, involving major and minor genes, and resembles human curly scalp hair associated with the PRSS53 gene alteration.

In this study, researchers identified 18 genetic associations with scalp and facial hair traits in Latin Americans, including novel loci for hair greying and balding, with implications for understanding hair evolution.

This study found that Prss53-mutated rabbits exhibited curved hair and skeletal dyskinesia, suggesting a link between Prss53 loss and these traits, potentially involving disrupted calcium metabolism.

PRSS35 enzyme may help start skin tumors and could be a target for cancer treatment.

In this study, aged mice showed better regenerative skin outcomes than young mice, linked to a specific fibroblast subpopulation and enhanced signaling interactions that promote regeneration. EREG treatment improved young mice's skin regeneration, suggesting potential for scarless therapies.

This review discusses the genetic and biological factors influencing hair curliness, revealing strong links to specific protein variations, and reports no new clinical results.

In this study, researchers identified novel long non-coding RNAs related to cashmere fineness in goats, highlighting a potential regulatory network involving lncRNA XLOC_008679 and its target gene KRT35.

In this study, researchers conducted a large genome-wide association meta-analysis and found 30 significant genetic loci linked to the risk of dermatophytosis, shedding light on the roles of keratin biology, skin barrier defects, immune dysfunction, and obesity in the disease.

This article outlines the rationale and design of the Rotterdam Study, summarizes its major findings, and updates its objectives and methods; it reports no new research results.

This study found that transcriptome profiling of cashmere goat skin revealed key genes and pathways involved in hair follicle initiation, differentiation, and maturation, which are critical for improving fleece production.

This study reports previously unrecognized cellular complexity in growing mouse incisors, suggesting species-specific differences in cell dynamics between mouse and human teeth related to growth and differentiation.

This study found that SARS-CoV-2 hijacks the host factor IGF2BP1 to stabilize its RNA and enhance translation, and identified Cepharanthine and Trifluoperazine as potential treatments against the virus.

This study identified a gene expression signature in mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts that depends on Wnt/β-catenin activity, potentially influencing dermal fibroblast identity and function.

This study used single-cell RNA sequencing to create a detailed atlas of human scalp hair follicles and found that early-stage hair graying involves matrix hair progenitor depletion linked to P53 pathway activation.

This study found that extracellular vesicles derived from mesenchymal stem cells and umbilical cord blood plasma enhanced wound healing and reduced scar formation in mice, suggesting their potential as therapeutic agents for skin repair.

In this study, researchers found that the novel gene circCFAP20DC enhances the proliferation of goat follicular granulosa cells by activating the RB pathway, facilitating their progression from the G1 to S phase during follicular development.

This study identified CD201+ fibroblast progenitors in mouse skin that regulate wound healing through differentiation into specialized cell types, with retinoic acid and hypoxia influencing this process.
